0369 It is easy to shake the mountain, but it is difficult to shake the PLA!
[Early in the morning, I stand in the green pasture]
[I saw the condor draped in that glow]
[Like an auspicious cloud flying across the blue sky]
【Bringing good luck to the children of collectors】
[I stand on a high hill at dusk]
[Looking forward to the railway to my hometown]
[Dragons over the mountains and mountains]
【Bringing health to the snowy plateau】
[That's a magical heavenly road]
[Send the warmth of the world to the frontier]
[From now on, the mountain is no longer high, and the road is no longer long]
[Children of all ethnic groups gather together]
Sun Weimin involuntarily put on a song, "Heavenly Road".
This is a song that is typical of the Tibetan style.
She recreated the Tibetan people's desire to open the Qinghai-Tibet Railway.
He also praised the builders of China's railways, who overcame many difficulties and finally allowed the Tibetan people to have railway lines leading to all parts of the motherland, thus fulfilling the dream of the Tibetan people for many years.
After glancing at Sun Weimin, Wang Liang knew what his grandson was going to express.
Sun Weimin's father, Sun Haiquan, was the son of Sun Desheng, the commander of the cavalry company that year.
In the sixties of the last century, Sun Haiquan participated in the construction of the Sichuan-Tibet line.
Today, Sun Haiquan, who dedicated his youth and health to the frontier of the motherland, has been bedridden all year round because of illness.
When mentioning the holy land of Tibet, how can it not arouse the emotion of Sun Weimin, who is a son.
In that place, there are traces left by my father's ancestors.
There are also countless loyal souls.
[I stand on a high hill at dusk]
[Look at the railway built to my hometown]
[Dragons over the mountains and mountains]
【Bringing health to the snowy plateau】
[That's a magical heavenly road]
【Take us into heaven on earth】
【Barley wine butter tea will be sweeter】
[The song of happiness spreads all over the world]
[That's a magical heavenly road]
【Take us into heaven on earth】
【Barley wine butter tea will be sweeter】
[The song of happiness spreads all over the world]
[The song of happiness spreads all over the world]
The lyrics drilled into Wang Liang's heart, and they were all about the past.
He can't be silent.
Wang Liang said: "You can enjoy the beautiful scenery all the way from the Sichuan-Tibet line, but do you know how many Chinese People's Liberation Army have left blood and sweat here on this road?" Or even the dedication of life! ”
It's not Wang Liang's hypocrisy, when he thinks of this, tears welled up.
Because there are so many martyrs whose souls are buried here.
There are too many heroic and fearless Sichuan-Tibet automobile soldiers still on the road.
"There is danger within a hundred steps, and the bones of the faithful are buried within ten miles."
"It's easy to shake the mountains, but it's hard to shake the People's Liberation Army!"
Wang Liang subconsciously said these two sentences, and as a result, a piece of history was revealed.
Before the fifties of the last century, there was not a single kilometer of road in the whole of Tibet.
At that time, all transportation in Tibet had to be completed by human and animal power.
In 1950, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) received an order to liberate Tibet.
The supreme directive: "On the one hand, on the one hand, on the other hand, on the road".
As a result, the construction of the first road into Tibet began.
"The Sichuan-Tibet Line is the ancient tea horse road in history, and now it is the combined name of the Sichuan-Tibet Highway, the Sichuan-Kang Highway and the Kang-Tibet Highway. Built in the thirties of the twentieth century, the Chuankang Highway was an interprovincial highway from Chengdu to Ya'an, the capital of Xikang Province at that time. ”
"In 1950, the construction of the Kang-Tibet Highway from Ya'an to Lhasa began, and after the withdrawal of Xikang Province, the two roads were called the Sichuan-Tibet Highway." Wang Liang introduced.
In those days, it was not easy to build roads on the plains.
What's more, it is on a plateau with an undulating terrain at an altitude of up to 6,000 meters.
It can be said that it is even more difficult than climbing to the sky.
Road construction begins with hammering stones with bare hands.
Wang Liang still remembers the road construction back then.
He has been involved in planning, drawings, and has been helping out on the plateau for a long period of time.
Wang Liang said: "At that time, the standard of road construction had been put to the lowest, with three layers of pavement, a layer of lime, a layer of clay, and a layer of stones, and then flattened to form a road. ”
However, in front of the warriors were fourteen snow-capped mountains covered with snow all year round.
and unheard of and unseen harsh natural environments.
In the first phase of road construction alone, more than 100,000 people participated.
Commanders and fighters of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, engineers and technicians, and migrant workers of all ethnic groups.
Tools: steel pliers, hammers.
are some of the most primitive tools.
That's four years.
"We didn't want to use machinery to build roads, but at that time, machinery and equipment on the plateau couldn't be used at all, and everything could only rely on manual labor." Wang Liang's expression looked a little sad.
It is easier said than done to build a road on the edge of a cliff.
Almost every meter of advance results in landslides and landslides of varying sizes.
Wang Liang clearly remembers the figure: In the first year of construction of the Sichuan-Tibet line alone, no less than 2,000 PLA commanders, fighters, and migrant workers sacrificed their lives for this purpose.
That translates to an average of five people per day over a period of 365 days in a year.
"I remember that Qi'er Mountain was a small hill, and on that hill alone, we sacrificed 300 people. A total of more than 4,000 people were sacrificed in the construction of the Kang-Tibet Highway, and if an average number is required, at least 1.5 officers and soldiers were sacrificed per kilometer! Wang Liang said a shocking statistic.
At that time, the war had already been fought and New China had been established.
In 1950, the "Land Reform Law of the People's Republic of China" was promulgated, which stipulated the abolition of the land ownership system of feudal exploitation by the landlord class and the implementation of the land ownership system for the peasants.
The landlords' land was confiscated and distributed to landless or landless peasants for cultivation.
The soldiers who came from a hard background have already been allocated land, and having land means that there is hope for life.
A happy life is coming.
They did not die under the butcher's knife of the Japanese devils, did not fall under the bullets of the reactionary warlords, but they ......
"The altitude is five thousand meters, the temperature is minus 30 degrees Celsius, the boiling point of boiling water is 70 degrees Celsius, and our morale is 100 degrees Celsius!"
"Please rest assured that the party and the country will ensure the completion of the task!"
"The road that was built the day before is gone the next day - because the mountain has fallen! The river that was waded the day before, is gone the next day - because it has become a dammed lake! ”
"Although we have left Tibet, our comrades-in-arms are still in Tibet, and we have them all the way, every kilometer. We will never forget Tibet. ”
"A platoon of soldiers, tied to a rope, fell to a boulder halfway up the mountain, and shot a cannon hole. Suddenly, a boulder rolled down from the top of the mountain, and the soldiers of the entire platoon rolled directly into the Palong River with the boulder, and the soldiers of the entire platoon were sacrificed. ”
These words were all said by the soldiers who participated in the war back then.
There are vows of pride.
There is an objective reality to face.
There is a piercing pain.
The ups and downs of life, when they were in their prime, they were all tasted in that era.
